I think it´s naive to think of the gabled roof as an elemental feature as it is not common too all cultures but western only.

I enjoy the building, except for the overly-self conscious staggered windows. The under-roof spaces should be a great place to relax and get some sun on a cold desert winter day.

[...] ORDOS 100 #10: Johnston Marklee & Associates The design of House House emerges from an interest in finding the most elemental model for a city.

Don’t worry, it’s just the Ordos presentation format. We also like the thumbs grid.

It’s nice, if a bit subtle. This is going to be quite the neighborhood!
